*Post Season 1*
Vi has never felt so lost or so guilty. Everyone told her Powder was gone and she refused to listen, refused to accept it. Now it’s too late. Caitlyn is injured, the Council may be dead, and war could be next on the horizon. All because of her.
Is there anyway to reach Jinx? To move forward? Vi isn’t sure, but she knows she’s not ready to give up just yet.

“Mom, I don’t really think this is…” Caitlyn begins, fumbling over her words. But Cassandra continues on as if she hasn’t spoken.
“Why, just yesterday, she was talking about a robbery you foiled together. Quite a tale to hear her tell it. One would think you single-handedly defeated an army the way she described you. She seemed quite taken by the sight,” Cassandra says, calmly stirring her own tea. Vi has been silently drinking her tea during this, but now she nearly chokes. Caitlyn, for her part, looks like she wants to sink into her chair and disappear.

Summary
"I'm right here, Vi. Everything is ok," Caitlyn murmurs. Vi's fingers twitch against her palms. The brush of her fingertips are as light as butterfly wings. Gently, Caitlyn runs her fingers across the back of Vi's hands. Slowly, they close around hers. Vi blinks once. Twice. A few more times.
"Cait?" Vi asks, her voice wavering.
It hurts to hear how uncertain she sounds.

Summary
“I’m not paranoid! I’m... we’re from below. You know everyone is out to get us. Topsiders and the others from the undercity. They always have been. Every one of them!” Jinx shouts. She's trying to focus, but the whispers are getting louder and the shadows are creeping back in.
“I had to be stronger to survive. I had to be strong enough to do it on my own. You weren’t there and I... had to be better. Better for Silco. Good enough to help him. He was the only one there and he didn’t have anyone else. He needed me and I had to be good enough not to get in the way,” Jinx tries to scream, but her throat croaks out the words instead. Vi’s eyes soften.
“So let me be there for you now that he’s gone. Let me help you chase the monsters away just one more time,” Vi offers, holding her hand out. Jinx looks away. Chains are rattling around the room and she wants to scream at them to stop. She wants Vi to fight back.
She needs so badly for her to fight back.
